Panel: "Treaty Agreements and Responsibilities" Fourth Annual Munsee Language & History Symposium

This recording is presented by The Native American and Indigenous Studies Initiative at Princeton University and co-sponsored by Land, Language, and Art: A Humanities Council Global Initiative, Princeton Public Library, the Program for Community-Engaged Scholarship (ProCES), and the School of Historical Studies at the Institute for Advanced Study. Panelists discuss how treaty agreements established through wampum belts were upheld—or neglected—both on Lunaapahkiing (present-day New Jersey and surrounding region) and in the Lunaape diaspora. This panel is offered as a public part of the Munsee Language & History Symposium, now in its fourth year of convening. Public presentations at the library on treaty agreements and related obligations will be made by: John Moses (Kanyen’kehaka and Delaware, Six Nations / Canadian Museum of History), “The History and Application of Repatriation Policy at the Canadian Museum of History” Mary Jane Logan McCallum (Munsee-Delaware Nation / University of Winnipeg), “Dutch Pageant at the Town Hall, 1924: Purchase and Disappearance at the Tercentenary of the Settlement of New Amsterdam” Jo Ann Gardner Schedler (Stockbridge Munsee Band of Mohican Indians), “Stockbridge and Munsee Treaties, Honoring Our Ancestors” About the Fourth Annual Munsee Language & History Symposium: This event continues and deepens ongoing relationships with Lunaapeewak (Lunaape people) from Munsee-speaking tribal nations, this year widening the circle to include Unami-speaking language keepers, as they gather with Princeton students, staff, and faculty on their own traditional territory, Lunaapahkiing. The symposium will take place in the presence of a wampum belt from Munsee-Delaware Nation, currently housed at the American Museum of Natural History, which will be in Princeton for the occasion. Sessions focus on treaty agreements, representations of Lunaapeew people in museums, language updates from each community, and versions of the Lunaape Story. This year’s theme is "Widening the Circle: Lunaape Land, Language, and History."
